U+6540 "敀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6540 "敀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that primarily functions as a variant form of the more common character "迫" (pò), meaning "to compel," "to force," or "urgent." Its composition combines the radical "攵" (a component often associated with striking or action) on the right with another element on the left, and it appears in classical texts and historical dictionaries such as the Kangxi Zidian. Due to its archaic nature, "敀" is not used in modern standard Chinese, but it serves as an artifact of the evolution of Chinese script, representing a scribal or calligraphic variation that has since been superseded by its more standard counterpart.
